Capital Pool Company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") is
providing an update on the status of its "Qualifying Transaction" further to its

Waterloo has entered into an amending agreement with Eagle Plains Resources Ltd.
("Eagle Plains") (TSX VENTURE:EPL) whereby the regulatory approval deadline
under the Option Agreement between the parties has been extended to August 31,
2009. Pursuant to the Option Agreement dated effective September 8, 2008 between
Waterloo and Eagle Plains, as amended on May 31, 2009, Waterloo has a right to
earn up to a 75% interest in the Ice River Property located 45 km east of Golden
in British Columbia, Canada. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the amending
agreement, Waterloo's expenditure requirements will remain the same; however, a
portion of the funding for the second year work program will now be delayed
until year four. Cash payments of Eagle Plains will remain unchanged; however,
an additional 50,000 shares will be issued to Eagle Plains on the third
anniversary of the Effective Date (as defined in the Option Agreement). 


The Option Agreement is intended to constitute Waterloo's "Qualifying
Transaction" under the policies of the Exchange. 


Concurrent Private Placement - Update

Waterloo proposes to complete, concurrently with the closing of the Qualifying
Transaction, a non-brokered private placement of up to 3,200,000 units of
Waterloo at a price of $0.10 per unit, for gross proceeds of up to $320,000.
Each unit will consist of one common share of Waterloo and one warrant.


The private placement will also include up to an additional 2,000,000
"flow-through" units at a price of $0.10 per unit, for gross proceeds of up to
$200,000. Each flow-through unit will consist of one flow-through common share
of Waterloo and one non-flow-through warrant.


Warrants comprising both the units and flow-through units will be transferable
(subject to applicable securities laws) and will entitle the holder thereof to
purchase one non-flow-through common share of Waterloo at a price of $0.155 per
share for a period of five years following the closing of the private placement.


All securities under the private placement will be issued after giving effect to
a proposed two for one share subdivision.


The proceeds of the private placement will be used to fund the costs associated
with completing the Qualifying Transaction, the proposed work programs on the
Ice River Project, and for general working capital purposes.
